Hey! New to the collecting game and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this piece!?

Handle says BLUE POINT F-40
Snap on # F-67 .1.

Thanks in advance

Snap-on Ratchet adapter f-67, 3/8” driver. (The one might be the date code)

Mounted on a

Blue point f40 3/8” socket spinner handle.

Makes a ratcheting screwdriver shaped driver out of two slightly rare pieces.

Depends on if your selling to the world or local. Ebay "sold listings" can give you an idea of world pricing. Local markets vary. Facebook marketplace may be able to help with local pricing. The adapter is pretty common, the yellow BP driver is hard to find in good condition.

Curious if we are allowed to post other old tools. I have a ton of them or if we are only allowed to post snap on tools here?

I can't seem to find any like this particular one for sale anywhere lol someone give me a ballpark value on it lol, I have a someone possibly interested

As with all things, it's worth whatever somebody will pay for it. If you're going to sell collector items, you pretty much have to immerse yourself in that world to get an idea what still will sell for, but even then you might have to sit on something for a long time or lower your price. It's worth about 50 cents to me.

My apologies and I will go and look for the classifieds. Thank you. I have a bunch I need to list.

I got my ratcheting adapter for. $2, don’t know about the spinner. I collect, not flip, so I don’t pay attention.

dropped I think 30$ on this one

It might be worth noting you can pull the two pieces apart. It's not pinned so either part may be worth more on it's own than together since there's overlap between collectors of either and users.

My 3/8 and 1/4 ratchet adapters are Hinsdale or something, same design as my Snap On 1/2 and 3/4, I picked up nos with an ex navy 1953 Craftsman box from an estate sale but I evaluated them at $10 a piece same as the Snap On if I found them when I was tallying up the contents for an offer. Spinner would be $3 since it's useful but I'm not seeking specific brands other than maybe a snap on pass through. I'd imagine both parts may be available on eBay at the $15-20 range sold individually.

Hard to find that bluepoint driver as the handles crack

The one and only one I have ever found was cracked like a shattered windshield. I think I still have the steel 3/8" driver part of it though

Yup that's why I blew 30 clams on mine! Handle is still very nice.

Keep it in the dark and a temperature controlled enviroment. Only remove a couple times a year to look at it and use gloves to handle it. Clean only with Dawn soap and baby tooth brush with extra soft bristles.
It is best to take a picture and then never look at or handle the F40 again.

I'm building a special room for it.....

Make sure you get the kind of windows that do not allow any UV light to get through.
